The Ymir save's value depends on the units you're using. For Beard's list it is VERY good though. Bikers and Zerks in particular benefit. flying obsec with very good anti everything would fit well in absolutely any army in the game and zerks hurt. Also I watched the Adepticon Final last night and it was the same matchup. Adepticon terrain is awful so that matchup was over based on who goes first so it just accentuated how this edition has gone. This game was a much better game to watch than the supermajor final as a resultthough credit to Nass and Arne they were also really fun, just not in a way you can monetise on youtube.

21:11 Was the command point being saved for the charge or the actual combat on the Berserks? Because they can reroll their own charges, and the damage seems pretty reliable, so I wouldn't have thought saving a CP was really necessary. Then again, I forgot they do only hit on 4s when I started typing, so I may have just answered my own question... 41:38 Pretty sure Void Armour preventing wound rerolls includes CP rerolls. Not like it changed anything in the moment, but Bard should have another CP

Bard's list will be cut to pieces against deep striking melee armies. So far i found prefectus order that makes enemies deploy more then 12" away instead of 9" a life saver. 4 vanquishers with élite sharpshooter instead of born soldiers do more damage then a gatekeeper and 3 plasma executioner combined just because they doesn't allow the enemy to save anything. Mortal wounds are useful also on 3 wounds heavy infantry because they splash like Age of Sigmar.

This game is a showcase of why I don't run the Magna-Rail on the tank. The number of times I will roll a 1 to hit with a 1-shot weapon cannot be understated. If Beard had hit just one time with that gun, he would have won. To put that into perspective for everyone. Until they boost toughness in 10th edition. I see no reason to not run the other options. Especially considering the judgement token mechanics making weapon strength irrelevant at three tokens. Number of shots beats strength in shots with this army, imo.
